    These two are Americans. Remember that next time you’re posting/commenting about Americans.

      When someone says fuck Nazi Germany, do you think they meant the victims and the people fighting back in the country too?

        The analogy would be “fuck Germans.”

              People also say that we deserve Trump and we are responsible for the genocide in Palestine if we criticize the dems. Collective punishment is a through line for our systems to justify its actions.

          Funny that you think civilians being bombarded is bad now, but in other threads about other countries being bombarded, you advocate for them to lay down arms and surrender to the people doing the bombing. How’s Gaza different?

        I think critics of our fascist American leaders understand that not every single American voted for them but they are criticizing America as a whole, not you as an individual. It’s like how I appreciated Hungarians for starting to break away from their ugliness, even though plenty voted for Orban.

            “I don’t like people grouping me in with actions of others”

                    Yes, you self sort into this group. This is unlike a group such as ‘all Americans’, which is much larger and heterogeneous, with involuntarily membership. I know, it’s complicated, and you’re more concerned with impressing your peers than forming a coherent worldview.
